Jeff Koons - Reviews
"L'arte non consiste nel dipingere un quadro, ma nel venderlo" Sta tutta qui la filosofia di Jeff Koons , famoso per le sue opere "esplicite" (alcune saranno in esposizione nella mostra Seduced - Art & Sex from Antiquity to Now, dal 12 Ottobre alla Barbican Gallery) oltre che per aver impalmato l'ex pornostar Ciccioloina. Chi volesse aderire al suo credo, e non avesse a disposizione i 3 milioni di euro pagati in un'asta da Sotheby's a New York per una sua istallazione, può almeno investire 750 euro per il volume Jeff Koons pubblicato in edizione limitata da TASCHEN"Panorama First, RomaItaly |

"Héritier de Marcel Duchamp et Andy Warhol, Jeff Koons, bad boy de l’art, est connu du grand public par les photos de ses ébats avec la Cicciolina, star du porno italien épousée en 1991. Société de consommation, kitsch, sexe sont ses thèmes récurrents. Un Puppy, chien monumental recouvert de fleurs (aujourd’hui devant le Guggenheim de Bilbao), le consacre tandis qu’un immense cœur métallisé rose fluo accueille les visiteurs lors de l’inauguration du Palazzo Grassi, à Venise, en 2006. L’homme a grandement contribué à la starisation de l’art contemporain. Cette monographie exhaustive sera suivie par une édition plus luxueuse encore, agrémentée d’une œuvre signée par l’artiste."L’Officiel de la Couture et de la Mode de Paris, ParisFrance |

"Le sulfureux Jeff Koons est le roi du provoc. Il secoue régulièrement le monde de l’art avec ses lapins gonflables en Inox, ses chiots monumentaux couverts de fleurs ou encore ses photos lascives l’exhibant avec sa femme La Cicciolina, ancienne star du porno. Son art est dit kitschissime, pop, conceptuel…ou bizarre. Il est adulé par ses fans, voué aux gémonies par ses détracteurs. Si vous faites partie des premiers, vous aimeriez ce très beau livre-objet publié par TASCHEN, illustré de centaines d’images, et qui retrace la vie et la carrière de Koons. Cette édition collector est limitée à 1500 exemplaires, numérotés et signés par l’artiste."Arts Magazine, ParisFrance |
